Tramon: "Shoulder isn’t career threatening”

“Structurally the shoulder is doing well. It’s more of a nerve thing at this point. I’m going to use the example I used in the locker room: During the season, I couldn’t lift a 30, 35 pound dumbbell over my head. Now I’m up to a 90 pound dumbbell. I’m not a doctor, but that’s progress.”

Peripheral nerves heal, it just takes a long time. With acupuncture, diet and herbs you can make it go faster, but you're still looking at around 1 millimeter per day. Russian scenar is good too.

I wish him the best. The Packer's need a 2010 version of Tramon Williams back, even if it's not until mid-season or so.

If he saw a team mate close to making a tackle, he would pull up and not help...That was from an interview with the big unit bill michaels

We could PUP Tramon right now and bring him back when he's 90-100%. But last year, we didn't have the depth.

I had no idea his shoulder was that bad last season.

Not sure, either, but I think that's how it works. For instance, Starks participated in OTAs as a rookie, but pulled his hammy, that's how he ended up on PUP.

Main point being, we don't NEED him on the field now. We can afford to sit him down and let him get healthy. Presuming House is ready and Heyward can play.

It's not just Bush and Lee anymore. LOL

I'm not as optimistic as many are about House and Heyward -- if Tramon doesn't come back to his 2010 form, we are relying really hard on "rookie potential" to improve the pass coverage. Sitting Tramon through the summer (save for rehab-related work) makes all the sense in the world to me. More reps for House, Heyward, et al, means deeper ability to assess their readiness, ability to coach them up more and faster, and gives better and earlier warning of unexpected red flags. It strikes me as a no-brainer.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

And as we saw... he shouldn't have.

Our best cover men ended up being both Woodson (who really isn't that great anymore) and Jarrett Bush (believe it or not, he hasn't been a liability as of late).

Tramon just wasn't the same.

Tough to blame the shoulder though. We don't play man coverage that much anymore, so I don't know if receivers were punching him in the shoulder during their routes, but Tramon should at least have been able to bat down more passes.

But after seeing games where he filled in for Al Harris during his injury, I know he's capable of being more than a one-year wonde.r

Nick Collins is the one who put the hit on Tramon Williams that hurt his shoulder, or rather the collision between them.

Mucky Tundra (31-May) : or that might have been an individual drill thing

Mucky Tundra (31-May) : that was from the 29th but I've seen other combs (including Rhyan@C)

Mucky Tundra (31-May) : @ByRyanWood Without Elgton Jenkins and Zach Tom, #Packers starting OL: Rasheed Walker, Jordan Morgan, Josh Myers, Sean Rhyan, Andre Dillard.

Martha Careful (31-May) : I have never seen an OTA, but who is lining up at LT and RG with starters? or is it all individual drills?

Zero2Cool (30-May) : Bears are the first team to be selected for Hard Knocks

dfosterf (29-May) : Andy Herman and his Pack a day podcast put up GB strengths yesterday. This morning he did weaknesses. They are both very good.

Zero2Cool (25-May) : Yes.

beast (24-May) : Does he say what it is?

Zero2Cool (22-May) : Christian Watson believes he has discovered the root cause his soft-tissue leg injuries

Zero2Cool (22-May) : Savage played last half of season with tear in rotator cuff

Zero2Cool (22-May) : SISSIES!!!!

Mucky Tundra (22-May) : Sounds like both Kraft and Tom were injuried before OTAs began

buckeyepackfan (22-May) : Not serious but waiting for strength and conditioning coach referwnces.

buckeyepackfan (22-May) : Tom and Kraft both injured(pectoral muscle),

Zero2Cool (20-May) : I feel similar about person and product/service.

beast (17-May) : Not sure why a players views reflect on GB... instead of simply on the player

Martha Careful (17-May) : I bet some of us have had 6+ mRNA jabs, a UKR flag on our walls, and still think Fauci has a thread of integrity

Zero2Cool (16-May) : From what I've read, it's all Jets , not us.

CanPackFan (16-May) : Will there ever be a time when Rodgers' whacko views will not reflect on GB? He is the past, thank god.

Zero2Cool (16-May) : Jan 4th gonna be rough with that start time lol

Zero2Cool (16-May) : Packers schedule listed. Boom.

buckeyepackfan (15-May) : Let the leaks begin. Colts @ Packers week 2, Vikings @ Packers week 4

Zero2Cool (14-May) : WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling to Bills

Zero2Cool (14-May) : Jets and Aaron Rodgers open up on Monday Night Football,

Zero2Cool (13-May) : $170 guaranteed. This might impact Jordan Love

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Lions are signing QB Jared Goff to a four-year, $212 million extension

Zero2Cool (13-May) : I know we moved on. That tidbit just makes me a touch happier.

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Sources spoke of many, many times last summer where Hackett called a play, then Rodgers changed it completely at the line

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

beast (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : And the OL protections seem to be good.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : I really don't know lol. I don't see him getting blown up.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : -3 buwahhhahaaha

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : 4th

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.
